Genius Loci de Paris"... The term "Genius Loci" means "the atmosphere of the land" or "the spirit of the land"... The photographs taken by Atget in 1924 are superimposed on the current ones to reveal the "Genius Loci" hidden in the gap of 100 years, The new image overlays the photo taken by Atget/Ager in 1924 and the photo taken in 2019. Rue de la Doma is located just off the intersection of Rue Saint-Jacques and Boulevard Saint-Germain, heading south from the Ile de la Cité. It is a short street, less than 100 meters long. The street parallels Boulevard Saint-Germain, and the middle 50 meters or so on the north side is a series of five or six old buildings built before the Haussmann renovation. Support (support), materials (colorants, etc.), technique, etc. - The support (support) is made of thick, low-gloss paper specially designed for photographic inkjet printing. Paper size is H210 x W297mm (A4 size). The size of the image of the work should be 90-95% of the paper size, with margins around the image. The size of the image should be 90-95% of the paper size, with margins around the image. （The street corner photographs taken by Atget have the address of the place where they were taken written on the back of the print. Fortunately, many of the street addresses still remain, and the street scenes often remain to some extent as they were in those days. However, the atmosphere there is quite different, and one is forced to wonder what Atget felt there. Many of his street corner photographs are taken with a large-format camera that uses a glass dry plate to correct the perspective of the buildings. The use of this function corrects the way the upper portions of buildings appear narrower than the lower portions. Since the cameras we are currently using do not have a "blurring" function, the images I take are corrected on the computer to bring them closer to the images of the azure buildings. After overlaying the images of Eugene Atget and myself, I then created a composite image by emphasizing the symbolic elements that remained in the two images. Eugene Atget (1857 - 1927) was a French photographer. Born in Bordeaux in 1857, he moved to Paris in 1878 and entered a theater school, but dropped out due to military service. In 1890, he returned to Paris to sell his "documentaries for artists. He restarted his life as a photographer. His systematic photographs of old Parisian cityscapes were purchased not only by artists but also by the Bibliothèque de Paris and the Musée Carnavalet. After his death, Man Ray's assistant, Berenice Abbott, collected his works and later sold them to the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1968. His work became widely known to the public.
